Star Citizen Location Finder: Interactive Map Of Stanton, Pyro And Nyx

What the Star Citizen Location Finder shows

The map works in levels, the same way you travel in game. The systems map shows Stanton, Pyro and Nyx with the jump gates that join them. Open a system for its planets, stations, gates and belts. Open a planet for its moons, orbiting stations and orbital markers. Open any planet or moon for its surface map, where every outpost, cave and facility is a point you can select.

In total the tool covers 1,359 places on 27 planets and moons: 909 across the 16 bodies of Stanton and 450 across 11 in Pyro. Nyx is mapped at system level, with Levski, its service stations, its jump gate and both asteroid rings.

How to find a location in Star Citizen

Use the search box at the top of the map. It searches every body at once, so typing part of a name is enough even when you do not know which moon a place is on. Selecting a result opens that body with the place highlighted and gives its latitude and longitude, altitude, and whether it is in daylight at this moment.

On a surface map the category chips switch whole kinds of place on and off, and the list beside the map can be filtered by name. On the system and planet maps the Show chips do the same for stations, jump gates, belts and orbital markers, and Find On This Map dims everything except what matches.

Share or save a place

Every place and every map level has its own link. Copy Link gives you an address that opens the map exactly where you are, which is the quickest way to send a meeting point to a friend or an Org. You can also tick places and export them as a bookmark file.

Caves, outposts and facilities

Caves are the largest group by far, with 803 mapped, followed by 120 Onyx facilities, 47 underground facilities, 45 forward operating bases and 41 mining outposts. Security posts, distribution centres, data centres, derelict settlements, emergency shelters, salvage yards, farms and race tracks are all there too, each under its own category so you can show only the kind you are looking for.

If you are looking for a place because of what you can mine near it, the Star Citizen Mining Material Finder answers that directly: pick an ore and it tells you where it is worth extracting. The map links to it from every body with Mining On.

Stations, Lagrange points and orbital markers

Stations in orbit are drawn beside the body they circle, so Everus Harbor sits with Hurston, Baijini Point with ArcCorp, Port Tressler with microTech and Grim HEX with Yela. Click one for its distance from the planet and from the star. Deep space stations and rest stops are on the system map, and Lagrange points appear when you turn on Mining Sites.

Each planet and moon also shows its six orbital markers, OM-1 to OM-6. They are the reference pilots use to approach a place with no quantum marker of its own: fly to the nearest marker, then down to the surface.

Heading to Pyro for the Contested Zones? Ruin Station is in orbit around Terminus. The Contested Zone Timer And Ship List tells you when the hangars open once you are there.

Jump gates between Stanton, Pyro and Nyx

The three systems are joined in a triangle. Stanton has open gates to Pyro and to Nyx, and Pyro and Nyx share a third, so no trip between them takes more than one jump. The systems map draws each open route as an arc, and each system map shows its gates with their distance from the star. A gate with a slash through it, such as the one from Stanton to Terra, is closed.

Gates sit a long way out. Before a long haul, check your quantum fuel against the distance with the Star Citizen Fuel And Jump Range Tracker.

Asteroid belts and mining regions

Turn on Mining Sites on a system map to see its belts, clusters and Lagrange points with what each one holds. Stanton has the Aaron Halo, a wide band between about 19.6 and 21.4 Gm from the star. Nyx has two rings: the Glaciem Ring at about 15 Gm and the Keeger Belt at about 48 Gm. Pyro's asteroid fields are separate clusters rather than a ring, grouped into four regions.

On a planet or moon, Mining Terrain shades the surface by mining region so you can see which ground a deposit table applies to.

Find creatures and materials

The same search box finds wildlife and harvestable materials. Type a creature such as Kopion, including variants like the Tundra Kopion, or the name of a material, and the map lists every planet and moon where it turns up. Pick one to open that body.

Plan a cargo run across all three systems

The tools here now share one login. Sign in once with Pilot Link, using the same account as the Star Citizen Hauling Loop Finder, and the contracts in your route planner appear on the map on every screen. Each pickup and dropoff is ringed on the surface, and Show Route draws a single contract from first pickup to last dropoff.

With two or more contracts, Route All Jobs chains every stop into one run. It always collects a contract's cargo before delivering it, keeps the load inside your ship's hold, and picks the shortest order it can find. The run is drawn as numbered stops joined by moving lines, each jump gate you pass through is tagged, and the systems map lights the gate links you use, so a loop through Stanton, Pyro and Nyx reads at a glance. Turn Return To Start on to close the loop back at your first station.

Using the map alongside the other tools

A place that is a hauling contract stop has a Haul From Here button that opens the Star Citizen Hauling Loop Finder starting from it. If you are new and deciding where to begin, the Best Starting Location Guide compares the four Stanton cities, and the map will show you what is around each one.

Star Citizen Location Finder FAQ

Is there an interactive map for Star Citizen?

Yes. The Star Citizen Location Finder above is a free interactive map of Stanton, Pyro and Nyx. It covers 1,359 places on 27 planets and moons, plus the stations, Lagrange points, asteroid belts and jump gates between them, and it runs in a browser on desktop or phone with nothing to install.

How do I find a location in Star Citizen?

Type its name into the search box at the top of the map. The search covers every planet and moon at once, so you do not need to know which body a place is on. Pick a result and the map opens on that body with the place selected, showing its latitude and longitude, its altitude and whether it is in daylight right now.

Where are the caves in Star Citizen?

Caves are spread across almost every moon and planet in Stanton and Pyro. The map marks 803 of them. Open a body, switch the Cave category on, and each one is a dot you can select for its coordinates. The filter chips above the map hide every other category so the caves are easy to pick out.

What are OM markers in Star Citizen?

Orbital markers, OM-1 to OM-6, are six fixed navigation points around every planet and moon. OM-1 and OM-2 sit over the poles and the other four sit around the equator. Pilots use them to line up an approach to a place that has no quantum marker of its own. The Location Finder draws all six around each body and gives their distance from its centre.

How do you get from Stanton to Pyro or Nyx?

Through a jump gate. Stanton has open gates to both Pyro and Nyx, and Pyro and Nyx are joined by a gate of their own, so the three systems form a triangle and any of them can be reached from any other in one jump. The systems map shows each open route as an arc, and each gate with its distance from the star.

Where is the Keeger Belt in Star Citizen?

The Keeger Belt is in the Nyx system. It is a ring of asteroid clusters circling the star at about 48 Gm, well outside the Glaciem Ring, which sits at about 15 Gm. Open Nyx on the map and turn on Mining Sites to see both rings and what can be mined in each.

Where is Ruin Station?

Ruin Station is in the Pyro system, in orbit around Terminus, the outermost planet. On the map, open Pyro and then Terminus to see the station beside the planet, with its distance from the surface.

Can I plan a hauling route across Stanton, Pyro and Nyx?

Yes. The tools share one login. Sign in with Pilot Link and the contracts from your hauling route planner appear on the map. Route All Jobs chains every pickup and dropoff into one run, collects each contract's cargo before delivering it, keeps the load within your ship's hold and draws the whole run, including each jump between systems.

Where can I find Kopion and other creatures in Star Citizen?

Type the creature's name into the search box on the map. It lists every planet and moon where that creature lives, including variants such as the Tundra Kopion, and the same search works for harvestable materials.

Does the Location Finder work on a phone?

Yes. On a narrow screen the maps redraw in a tall layout with larger labels, on-screen zoom buttons and a filter you can fold away. Drag sideways to turn a map, and use the plus and minus buttons to zoom.
